Abstract:
An image stabilization apparatus includes: a first calculation unit that calculate an angular velocity; a second calculation unit that calculates a motion vector of an object; a third calculation unit that calculates a current position of an image stabilization unit; a fourth calculation unit that calculates an angular velocity of a motion of the object; and a control unit. The control unit controls, before the image capturing apparatus is released, the image stabilization unit so as to correct an image blur, moves, an output position of an image from the image capturing unit, and controls, after the image capturing unit has started exposure, so as to correct an image blur based on an angular velocity of the image capturing apparatus and an angular velocity of the object.
